PETER IIOOGERZEIL, OF BEVERLY, MASSACHUSETTS.

LAM P-CHIMNEY.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 631,211, dated August15, 1899-.

' Application filed March 9, 1899. Serial No. 708,403. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, PETER HOOGERZEIL, a citizen of the United States,residing at Beverly, in the county of Essex and State of Massachusetts,have invented new and useful Improvements in Lamp-Chimneys, of which thefollowing is a specification.

This invention has for its object to provide a new and improvedlamp-chimney which can be readily cleaned, either end can be made torest upon the lamp-burner, and a part of the chimney serves as a shade.This object is accomplished in the manner and by the means hereinafterdescribed and claimed, reference being made to the accompanyingdrawings, in which- Figure 1 represents a top plan view of the improvedchimney. Fig. 2 represents a central longitudinal section on the line 22 in Fig. 1, showing the two sections in position for use; and Fig. 3represents asimilar longitudinal section showing the sectionsdisconnected.

Similar letters refer to similar parts wherever they occur on thedifferent parts of the drawings.

In the drawings, A and B represent the two sections of the chimney. Oneof the sections (the one marked A) is adapted to be received in thecorresponding flaring portion of the section B, which latter is formedintegral on its interior with an annular stop projection B, that servesas a rest for the flaring portion of the section A, as shown in thedrawings.

a and b are the reduced upper and lower ends of the respective sectionsA and B, and said reduced ends are made equal in diameter and of likeshape, so that either one of them may be placed in position on thelamp-burner, as may be desired.

The upper section A is composed of trans= parent glass and the lowersection of opaque glass, either ground or colored, to serve as a shade.

By my construction the two parts can be separated to facilitatecleaning. The upper and lower ends of the chimney being identical indiameter and shape, either end can be made to rest on the lamp-burner.One of the sections serves as a shade. The sections can be readilynested for transportation, and if one section is broken or cracked it isonly necessary to supply a new section and not the entire chimney.

What I wish to secure by Letters Patent and 1. A lamp-chimney consistingof two separable counterpart glass sections engaged one with the othercentrallylof the chimney, and the two sections having contracted endscoequal in diameter and of like shape, substantially as shown.

2; A sectional glass lamp-chimney consisting of the lower opaque glasssection B formed integral with the internal, annular projection B belowits upper edge, and the upper transparent glass section A having itslower end inserted into the lower section, resting on said projectionand removable therefrom, said sections having the contracted ends a andb coequal in diameter and of like shape, substantially as shown.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence of twosubscribing witnesses.

PETER HOOGERZEIL.
